Paper Summary:

This six-page undergraduate paper addresses the use of DNA to overturn prisoners who have wrongly been convicted. DNA testing has made exoneration possible for many innocent convicts. It allows the prevalence of a more just legal system. Unfortunately, this expensive testing is made freely available to convicts only in New York and Illinois. In the rest of the states, the prosecutors, the courts and the governors rule whether a prisoner would have DNA testing. Many prisoners resist this test possibly because they are guilty of crime.
